BAFTA ? it should be DAFTA
What a parochial bunch of
"Little Englanders" they
really are.
I mean it is not as if
the film "Seachd" is in
competition with some
other non-English Language
British made film, is it ?
Surely it is time that the
American Film academy, were
to accept nominations from
"Scottish Screen"
Quote from the "blurb"
on Scottish Screen's
Literature.
...............
Scottish Screen is the national screen agency for Scotland with responsibility for developing all aspects of screen culture and industry across the country. We are a relatively small agency seeking to make a big impact.
Established in 1997, we are working to drive an integrated screen policy across Scotland, and across the screen industries. We do this through being:
an advisor to government
an advocate for the industry
a development agency
a strategic investor
We work in close partnership at local, regional, national and international levels across the public, private and voluntary sectors.
